2012 Free Agent: George Hill

[Gagnrath]

I like hill and he is a good role-player. He's not going to be an all star but can be a quality starting guard in the NBA as he is showing with the pacers. As a good team guy, a good community, and a hometown boy, The Pacers are one of the few opportunities a player of his skill level has to not wander around the league for their career, as trade filler, the other possibility is becoming a fan favorite in the city where he was drafted. A long term contract is a great thing for him and his family, and I strongly hope that this is laid to rest.

George Hill's five-year deal with the Indiana Pacers is worth $40 million, according to league source.

That trade gets better all the time.

Congrats to George, but 5/40 is grossly overpaid for what he brings to the table.

Congrats to George Hill. I'm guessing he got at least $30 million over five years. Probably closer to $40 million for it to be completed this quickly.

But damn, $40 million for Hill? He's a good player but no way in I'd give Hill $8 million per season.

That's great news for Hill. $40 million for Hill was the absolute max he'd get even in this market and he got it.









P.S.

Thank you Spurs for the Kawhi trade.

Happy for him, really overpaid but since the Spurs weren't the ones who did it, and we got Kawhi on our roster, I'm happy for him.

Good for George but that trade looks amazing for us right now.

He is a good player but 40m/5y is way too much for him. I am glad we traded him.

elemento,

What device do you post from? You lead ST in double posts by a substantial margin.

I've realized that

I think my mouse has a freaking double-click problem (i use an optical from MS) or it's has something to do with my connection. I am traveling right now in Brazil and i use a super slow connection (it's a 3G connection, but in some places it only works as 2G).

Anyway, I am sorry for that. I know it's very annoying.

It's not a big deal at all, I was just wondering.

dragic is demanding 10

[loveforthegame]

The trade looks better and better by the day.

Congrats to Hill but glad the Spurs are not having to pay him that.

[Ice009]

Owners have gone totally nuts.

Hopefully they all regret these signings. pathetic contracts being handed out.

[ducks]

lin get 4 years 30 million almost 8 million a year

[intlspurshk]

SPURS should think ahead on what to do with Splitter

[wildbill2u]

The owners were killing themselves over superstars. Now they are killing themselves over good mid-level players.

I hope that George will grow into this contract, even if it seems a bit high now.
